Description from the seller
A typical Polaroid mosaic by Maurizio Galimberti, composed of 35 Polaroids. The work is archived and published in the volume "Berlin" on page 100 (as shown in the images). Because there is glass, reflections appear on some images. There is a frame with a few small dents, and we will also assess whether to ship the work with or without glass for safety reasons. In any case, the shipment will be carried out in professional packaging with a courier and will therefore be trackable, ONLY WITHIN THE COUNTRIES OF the EUROPEAN COMMUNITY.
Maurizio Galimberti (Como, 1956) is an Italian photographer of international renown. A photography enthusiast since his youth, Galimberti began working with classic analog black-and-white film, which in 1983 was replaced by the more advanced instant camera that would become his signature style.
Galimberti developed a personal technique based on juxtaposing multiple instant images, giving rise to true photographic mosaics in which the influence of great masters such as Umberto Boccioni and Marcel Duchamp is easy to recognize. In his compositions the subject is deconstructed and reassembled in a three-dimensional key, following a mathematical and rigorous procedure that echoes the harmony of a musical composition.
At the center of his mosaics appear both famous artworks, such as the Winged Victory of Brescia, Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper, and the Cappellone di San Nicola in Tolentino (Macerata), and figures from the entertainment world, including Johnny Depp, Lady Gaga, George Clooney, Monica Bellucci, and Robert De Niro.
Galimberti has collaborated with leading companies across various sectors, including AC Milan, Fiat Auto, Kerakoll, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Illy coffee, Nokia, Lancia Auto, and Acqua di Parma. His works have been the subject of numerous publications, as well as being exhibited in important Italian cultural institutions, including the 57th Venice Biennale of Art, M9 Museo del Novecento in Mestre, Gallerie d’Italia in Milan, Museo Muse in Trento, Mole Antonelliana in Turin, and Palazzo Reale in Milan.
